Well, I've won about a dozen items over the last 6 months (mostly currency but a few coins) and haven't gotten anything from them in the mail...
The person is almost certainly a billionaire and their desire for anonymity and donation of the coin to museums means they could care less about...
Do you have one ? Any plans to get one ? I'm hoping my job situation and other stuff allows me to save enough to take a shot at getting one at...
We have tons of threads here that are Guess The Grade. And while we have lots of guys get the grade exactly right and very few of us are off by...
Lowle, sorry you have such bad memories of the 1990's and I am sure that the Coin Bubble of 1989-90 left a very sour taste in your mouth. But...
What's the cheapest it can cost to get something slabbed if you send them in HUGE bulk.....$5 per coin ? For most of us, it costs about $10-$12...
